Many thanks for the feedback and replies. Always very good to have them - at last!
Environment and Regeneration Committee begins and ends with getting ourselves climate compliant!
In one sentence, Andrew, my answer is: because you all Declared a Climate Emergency in 2020! If you are genuinely concerned and are not climate deniers, everyone of you will want to take my survey seriously and to give me your answers, PLEASE! The topics in the survey are about human driven climate change that is on top of natural climate change and worsens it - very fast in the geological time scale but very much slower on the human scale, of course. Until all the eight tipping points are reached. And that is what is so alarming and deceptive.
Addressing Dudley's financial emergency is at the heart of addressing the Climate Emergency. They are linked! Climate priorities FIRST to sort out the finances - honestly! Ask me what I mean and I'll give you examples.
My survey of members' wishes are about matters that can all help to make Dudley MBC climate compliant, to reduce our council greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and, therefore, slow the catastrophic consequences of burning fossil fuels. Climate scientists from around the world have been warning us about such burning for 200 years - two prominent scientists in the 1850s! It really is as long ago as the 1820s when the first experiment was done!
Do you each agree that we can reduce them by diversifying into USING all the transport infrastructure we have, so that we don't always have to jump in the car, even if it is 100% electric? (The self-congratulatory car to lull us into thinking there is nothing more to do!)
Please tell me what you think and engage and argue your case. Send back the survey quiz. THANKS SO MUCH!
Tim
